Jorge Lorenzo has stopped Marc Marquez for the top spot in MotoGP's British Grand Prix practice session at Silverstone.
Lorenzo took charge on the second session with an early 2m02.338s lap while Honda rider Marquez got within 0.033 seconds of the Yamaha's mark.
The world champion pair were nearly upstaged by top home rider Bradley Smith in the final seconds, as the Tech 3 Yamaha man set the pace in the first three quarters of the lap before falling short and remaining in third place.
While Valentino Rossi was only 10th on the second works Yamaha, just under a second behind team-mate Lorenzo.
Dani Pedrosa improved his form and take the fourth place for Honda ahead of leading Ducati man Andrea Dovizioso, whose team-mate Andrea Iannone disrupted his session with a crash at Stowe.
Suzuki was struggling for a top-10 presence until Aleix Espargaro shot up the order to sixth late on.
That put him just ahead of brother Pol's Tech 3 Yamaha, Iannone, morning star Scott Redding and Rossi.
